Wireless PC to share internet to Xbox

[just1tree]

Hey guys,

Got a new networking scenario that I could use some help with. I have a Wireless network that I use to share internet to my laptop and another pc. I also have an older xbox that I want to connect to the internet. I don't have a crossover cable or the tools to make one (maybe i should put that on my xmas list lol), but i do have an extra old linksys 100/mb router laying around. I was wondering if I could connect my router to the NIC on my wireless PC and then connect the xbox to the router to access the internet.

I would bridge the connection between the wireless network card and the wired nic card. Anyone with experience or knowledge that could help out, I'd really appreciate it.

I hav a 100/10Mbit switch, 2 computers, internet modem and XBOX.

Connect the computers to your router with your internet modem. Also connect a lan cable to the ethernet port of the Xbox and the router.

and thats it!.

you dont need to bridge the connections, it should work straight away. If not bridge it to see what happens.

Ok, I went and bought a cross over cable to connect my xbox to my wireless PC, and I have enabled internet connection sharing. The Xbox is able to configure the IP info, but cannot resolve the DNS. Anyone have any experience with this or play around with something like this?

set it manually 192.168.0.1 (or what ever is your router's ip address) or you could use this address 203.12.160.35
